did he have concerns coming into the league?

Don't remember, but that's not the point.

There are plenty of guys with known character questions, yet we still have folks who argue to sign guys like Josh Gordon, Justin Blackmon, heck even Titus Young.

As has been repeated many times, don't put yourself in the position of having to rely on someone who's known to be unreliable.

ahh, thought maybe he had some issues coming out.

I do agree thought that I think some people devalue the off the field issues.  When you are using a high draft pick I would think you would want to mitigate risk, especially when there is usually a 2nd option that you have rated fairly closely.

I hate the Falcons as much as the next guy, but this is ridiculous.

Ridley gets suspended for a year for a $1,500 bet, prompting Roger Goodell to say this poo:

"Your actions put the integrity of the game at risk, threatened to damage public confidence in professional football, and potentially undermined the reputations of your fellow players throughout the NFL."

What a hypocritical piece of poo. The NFL doesn't have any integrity to risk. I don't remember him ever coming out against any of the wife beaters or the drunk drivers or the owners getting hand jobs at massage parlors with a statement this strong.

Technically speaking they are still investigating the whole "Pay to lose" thing in Miami. An NFL player betting on games could be looked upon as along the same style since they could possibly be involved in fixing some of those bets and falling into that "risking the integrity of the game" category. Not saying Calvin WAS but I can see where the argument comes from.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
